No Trouble For Toebbe
Alejandro Federico De Arruabarrena just spent a solid five minutes thinking about a big decision but ultimately he did not pull the trigger. The action started when the Argentinian raised to 6,700 from the cutoff. Toebbe three-bet to 16,700 from the big blind and the pressure was back on De Arruabarrena.
After a while De Arruabarrena put out a four-bet to 36,700. At this point Toebbe slid off his giant headphones and a German rap song came blasting out of his speakers. Tim Ulrich started laughing as did some other German players while Toebbe went into the tank for over a minute. He finally came up with a five-bet to 66,700 and the pressure was back on De Arruabarrena.
De Arruabarrena took about three minutes before Ulrich called the clock on him. A member of the tournament staff started the one-minute countdown shortly after that and De Arruabarrena sat motionless as time expired. His hand was pronounced dead on the scene and Toebbe raked in the pot.
